In this study, endothelium-dependent vasodilation was reduced in patients with type 2 diabetes regardless of the presence of polyneuropathy, whereas microvascular vasodilation was normal in patients with CAP. These data suggest that in type 2 diabetes, neuropathy does not contribute to impaired microvascular endothelium-dependent vasodilation and vice versa. In addition, this study suggests that impaired microvascular vasodilation does not contribute to CAP.
